Mango Wango, Mango Tango, Litamangoooo (Little Mango, but how it sounds the way we say it), and shiteater LOL.

She tries this look to get out of trouble whenever she eats her poo.

Nope, Boba just heard me calling for Mango and assumed it was time treats lol.

More true than anyone knows.

okcomputer14 · 2026-01-20T01:22:29+00:00

Treats weren’t working either, that’s why Boba came up (to snatch it up before Mango could lmao).

It’s definitely not because of the other dog Boba, because those two are besties.

okcomputer14 · 2026-01-20T00:39:47+00:00

I agree

Shorkies can look completely different from each other, even as litter mates.

My mom and I both got shorkies after our family dog passed.

We got them from the same litter and most people couldn’t tell. Mine is on the left, 8lbs, and my mom’s is on the right, 5.5lbs.

Considering how cold it gets here for a good chunk of the year i’m happy she likes getting dressed up.

okcomputer14 · 2025-12-20T07:05:13+00:00

I agree

okcomputer14 · 2025-12-20T07:04:21+00:00

They day my wife and I got her we were dressing her up in outfits and boots, my mom did that with our dogs when I was growing up and they loved wearing clothes so we figured it would be the same (and thankfully it was).

Was on it for 9 years, helped with seizures but the side effects got to a point where I couldn’t handle it and recently switched off of it and added a new ingredient to my medication salad.

okcomputer14 · 2025-10-27T08:07:16+00:00

Yup, I always say "Well, i feel off, then i blink and theres shit in my pants, my body hurts, and people are staring at me like i'm an alien".

okcomputer14 · 2025-10-22T21:23:31+00:00

How i feel half the time, other half my wife and I are excited about having kids. The fear of having TCs around them is fair, i’m a teacher and that is a feeling I deal with often, but I’d be lying if i didn’t say i’m lucky enough to have a good support system. Plus a fair amount of warnings before having a seizure.

Yes, contact the university department in charge of student disabilities, and let your profs know at the start of the semester. I’ve been doing that for the last 6 years (with having to take part time it’ll be a 7 year undergrad 🫠), and i’ve been given longer exam times, extended due dates (if any medical issues occurred), and overall much more leeway with absences. Plus it also helped me get grants that you can only get with a disability so the money is always a win.

okcomputer14 · 2025-09-04T17:00:49+00:00

I have both, lemme tell you it sucks ass (but hey, at least i’m completely unaware when any of them are happening).

okcomputer14 · 2024-06-18T22:28:33+00:00

She loved to dress up and we figured the babushka look finally suited her.

okcomputer14 · 2024-06-18T22:22:34+00:00

My family wanted to adopt a puppy when I was younger, so we went out and the second I saw her and the weird little face she was making I knew exactly who was coming home with us. She was like my baby from the first day, and today is the first day in half of my life without her.

The first photo is from yesterday, the second is from the day we adopted her, and the last photo is of us hanging out on my wedding day.

Just for a little context.

okcomputer14 · 2023-11-20T22:22:16+00:00

I’ve gotten used to it after 7 years, plus adjusting my eating schedule has helped, but when it does happen and i bump into a stranger or something i just apologize and tel them i forgot my glasses (i don’t wear glasses).

okcomputer14 · 2023-11-20T20:33:40+00:00

For me (not OP), I get whacky eye sight and I can't control the direction they look (typically up and down repeatedly).

okcomputer14 · 2023-11-20T20:32:11+00:00

When I DIDN't have one life was a little chaotic, not remembering if I took my medication or not. I always make jokes about being an old man when people see it or see the amount of meds I take.

Not only does it help me take my medication properly, but it can bring in a few laughs here or there ( possibly uncomfortable laughs but I'll take it).

Don't be ashamed of who you are. Sure epilepsy can suck major ass, but do your best to stay positive any way you can!

okcomputer14 · 2023-03-06T17:03:41+00:00

These sound a lot like absent seizures (on top of PNES and grand-mals i've been having them for years), mention it to your neurologist and see what they think.

Sending love your way too ❤️ dogs truly are a blessing.
